No Other Choice (original Korean version with Italian subtitles)
Regia: Park Chan-wook
Cast: Lee Byung-hun, Son Ye-jin, Park Hee-soon, Yeom Hye-ran,
Giunti Odeon presents the eagerly awaited new film by one of the greatest masters of contemporary Korean cinema, Park Chan-wook (Old Boy, Thirst, Decision to Leave), starring Lee Byung-hun, the lead actor in the cult TV series Squid Game. The film, which was in competition at the last Venice Film Festival and is in the running for the Academy Awards, tells the story of You Man-su, a paper manufacturing specialist with twenty-five years of experience, who leads a simple and peaceful life with his wife Miri and their two children. His work is more than just a profession, it is what shapes his identity: “I have everything I want,” he can say with pride. However, when his company fires him without warning, his life falls apart and he risks losing everything he has built: his mortgage, the greenhouse he tends with passion, dance lessons with his wife, even the upkeep of the two golden retrievers to which his children are very attached. In desperation, he tries everything he can by applying to Moon Paper, the company where he is certain he can prove his worth. Convinced that he deserves the job more than anyone else, he makes a very specific decision: ‘If there's no place for me, I'll find a way to make room for myself.’ How far will he be willing to go if there is no other choice?
ATTENTION PLEASE: from December 31 to January 6 all discounts are suspended and the ticket price is always full price (€12).
The film is prohibited for children under 14 years of age.

The restaurant
Caffè Odeon, a place to nourish mind and body
Open daily: 11:30 AM - 12:00 AM
Caffè Odeon in Florence was born from the encounter with the Giunti publishing house, and from the project to give new life to the historic Odeon cinema, transforming it into a multifunctional cultural center.
The idea is simple and ambitious: to create a space open all day, like the great Mitteleuropean cafés, where you can enjoy dishes from different gastronomic traditions, a varied pastry selection, a carefully curated coffee service, as well as wines, cocktails and non-alcoholic beverages.
Eating, drinking a coffee or a good glass of wine have much in common with reading a book or watching a film: they are different ways of experiencing stories, through the senses. It is this connection that makes our dream a reality.
A place of history and beauty
Since 1922, the most beautiful films, the most distinguished guests, and the most remarkable events have taken the stage at the magnificent cinema-theatre in Piazza Strozzi, Florence. Come visit us.
Odeon, a century of cinema and culture.
A book filled with images, documents, stories, and curiosities retraces the history of one of Florence's most iconic places, from its origins to the present day. Discover more.
